    I streamed this for some friends recently after it was recommended here and one of them kept saying “I didn’t know they had that” when it showed shots of people at the amusement park on rides and things like that. I don’t know if they’ll remember it after today, but a seed may have been planted.

      That girl looked really into him and DTF and probably yes his political status and social stature played into that. But Stalin seemed to politely not reciprocate while also enjoying the attention.

      The worst I see in this video is that Stalin didn’t have the self-consciousness to understand why a man shouldn’t be guest of honor at a women’s forum, so ok a ding thing but at the risk of moral relativism it was the fucking 1930s and he was hosting special forums for social groups facing labor discrimination holy shit that’s still better than 99.9% of the US elite.

      And secondly he definitely was enjoying the attention but that girl was definitely into him, and he was known to be a rogue in his 20s and to be a real charmer so maybe my bro gotta learn there’s a time and a place to get tail and a women’s focus group ain’t that place.
